1 Clone a computer
With SoftwareCentral you can clone one computer to one or more target computers. You can clone only the assigned software, or make a complete clone with operating system, machine variables and software. Both interfaces are found under the Clone menu button.
| Interface | Use it when |
|---|---|
| Clone Single Computer | You clone one source computer to one target computer. |
| Clone Multiple Computer | You clone one source computer to a group of target computers in one operation. |
Settings and files are not cloned
User settings and personal files are not cloned. Only the software, and, unless you choose Clone only software, the operating system and machine variables are copied.
Best practice
Try the clone on one target first. A complete clone reinstalls the target and removes everything assigned to it, whereas Clone only software only adds software. Choose the target carefully, and use Clone only software for computers that are already in use. In environments that use Intune you can also clone the applications of an Intune device to another Intune device with Clone Single Computer.
